| He will custom make each set by offset, height and width based on what you need, so yeah its really cool that he asks you about your car's suspension setup before you buy. He is more concerned that you get the correct size the first time, than most places that just want to move units. |

Stallion777 those look GREAT! Any rubbing? Your bug doesn't look lowered at all?
I might have to snag those! looking at the same tire sizes you have on. Does anything hit/rub in the front or rear? |

| No rubbing at all. I am very happy with the wheels. My car is lowered a little. I have a adjustable beam. I lowered it before I put the wheels on. Gonna lower it some more. Only little issue I have is my beetle has long axles. I did not know this and my wheels stick out in the rear. So its either I take the car apart to install short pre 67 axles or go with wider fenders. |

| You should see if Smitty's can change your offset on your rear wheels to pull your tires in some. That's what I have to do |
